Not the summer pool party you had in mind?

Published August 9, 2018, by AQUIS Marketing

The dog days of summer are here. It’s August at a major metropolitan hospital which still has over a dozen 30 year old air handling units in operation, all running at full tilt due to the blistering heat and humidity. With Murphy’s Law at work, one of these older air handlers begins leaking water into an operating room. Panic quickly sets in, and a chicken fight among Facilities team members ensues. Immediate action needs to be taken to define the scope of and abate the problem, resulting in an Operations & Maintenance style version of Marco Polo for a problem that was inevitable, given the age and condition of the air handlers. Because of the size and location of the leaking air handler, and the precarious areas it serves, replacement will be extremely costly and the downtime will be lengthy. This scenario creates a number of logistical complications in other areas, yet it is the number one emergency call we receive each summer here at AQUIS.
